Thank you so much. I'm keeping this column handy to rebut and/or reassure the quibbles and mutterings that are sure to arise in my in-person and online circles. So far, so good, but, well -- Democrats will Democrat.
I hope Democrats unite behind Harris, pick an Admiral Stavridas or General Kelly type as running mate- an older white male who understands world politics & has gravitas. Democrats should show us they are the ones with traditional American views who can articulate how the world works, and act like grownups. Announce the main cabinet nominees soon, and flood the Sunday shows & commercials hammering home MAGA wants America on the wrong side of the Putin vs the free world thing. And keep reminding voters of Biden’s amazing successes in 4 years in spite of MAGA & the propaganda machine. And utilize Trump’s former employees & Lincoln Project types. Thanks for your great work.
From across the pond, I've seen and heard very little about Kamala Harris. After Biden's perfectly timed withdrawal - genius I would say, waiting for DJT to be nominated (by design or accident? ..will have to wait for those memoirs) - I've been avidly reading what I can find about Kamala. Your learned insights have been most helpful.
The presidency is hers (Democrats) to lose, I feel. Her opposite number, supported by Musk's most generous funding, is going to throw everything he can at her, and even the courts, of that I have little doubt. How the GOP plays the next 100 odd days remains to be seen, but its not going to be pretty.
Wishing Kamala Harris, and the USA, much courage, determination, fortitude & strength to save the 'West' in these most perilous of times.
Kamala knows more about EVERYTHING than the Combover King but let me highlight a few of the most meaningful ones: women’s bodies, criminal justice, the southern border, legislative processes, technology, economic development, international relations, modern American families and (practically the same thing) diversity.
She was stellar during his impeachment. She knows what he did, why he did it and who he did it for when he tried to shake down Ukraine. She knows right from wrong. Maybe I should have started with that one!
This independent voter will bookmark this post and lean on it while the frustration and fury over the deposing of Biden recedes. I’m happy to fully support Kamala because she’s proven her abilities throughout her career.
What our country now needs to see, besides full throated support of Kamala, is a concerted long range plan for elevating reasonable Democrat leaders.

Thank you for this! It's just the column we needed to see to start this first full day of the Harris campaign. Energized and ready to work even harder now!
Can we please not do the coronation of a female candidate again? It didn't work with Hillary and it won't work with Harris. If the country doesn't get a competition, we won't believe she's the best for the job. She is, I'm sure, but she needs to be tested against our other amazing array of democratic governors who could also win!
Oh, you’ve got your head in the sand …that’s OK if that’s what you wanna do. We have to trust in this process even though to be honest with you it is a flawed process! We have to beat Trump/ Vance and project 2025.
I was referring to your statement "You need to be quiet" to someone who expressed an opinion. My head is decidedly not in the sand. Both major parties have the same problem with tunnel vision and strong arming tendencies. I've never voted straight party line until McConnell made his pledge to work to keep Obama a one-term precedent. Now it's imperative to push back against the advance of American fascism..
Kamala Harris is a Boomer, born in 1964
No, according to the Census bureau, the cut off date is July 1964. She was born in October 1964.

You got it right as usual. Besides that you are a smart and great guy !!!!

"Musk's most generous funding" is looking a little shaky these days. We shall see . . .
She sure will be. Finally a woman ! A very strong woman. Now
We Need a Strong moderate woman in Canada too
We MUST unite and then it is possible.
Thank you David, I needed this today 😉
Kamala will bring Supreme Court Reform! An ethics code with teeth please 🙌🏽
This is hopeful and I’m here for it. Here’s one of my long term questions: when is the next time we can expect a true presidential primary?
Thank you David!
The Prosecutor vs The Felon!
Remember how she handled Barr and Cavanaugh! As was shouted to her at a recent event: ‘Go get him Kamala!’

Thanks for a post with real meaningful substance.

Absurd Republican alert! Don't read this guy unless you want to get angry .. he's programmed in a certain way.

No… she is the perfect person. You need to be quiet.
You’ve ably illustrated the mindset that has made and kept me from joining any political party.
